Got my ICP test back and all looks pretty good except some high levels on a couple elements which I believe I know where they were coming from and discontinued use of these products.
Lanthanum - from using Lanthanum Chloride to reduce PO4
Zinc & Iron - from using SeaChem trace and possibly Phol's Xtra
Which brings me to Detox, in the Triton Manual it says "Triton Detox is used to remove excess unwanted heavy metals from seawater."

Ok great..... which heavy metals? Will it remove the 3 above? Is there a list of the heavy metals that Detox will remove?
Also, in the instruction it says to use activated carbon after 72 hours and that a browning of the aquarium water may occur and is perfectly normal. That the activated carbon will pull out the browning of the water where the heavy metals have bound themselves to the detox. OK, thats great.. I get it... but what about my protein skimmer? Should that also be shut off until after the activated carbon has visibly removed the brown water from my system?
Any adverse effects on refugium algae?
